Couture went to the dogs this past Tuesday when Rose Mandel and Marco Foster put to- gether a special night of fashion. Chic Chicagoans gathered for the second annual NEXT Fashion Show. Hosts for the evening were the dashing Marcus Riley of Channel Five and the always glam Candace Jordan. The fashion event was a benefit for PAWS Chicago. Since that just happens to be one of our favorite causes, we were so excited to be part of this event. Some of the A list Chicagoans that were on the host committee included Billy Dec, Jon Cotay of AKIRA, Corri McFadden, and Jessica Zweig of Cheeky Chicago. There were other fashion heavy hitters as well to view the gorgeous designs. Many beautiful models walked the runway , but the ones that touched our hearts were the ones with four legs.

Here is Candace with one of the adorable residents of PAWS, Barney.PAWS prides itself on being a no kill shelter. Dogs aren’t the only residents there, they also play hosts to kitties. Jen and I are actually volunteers in the cat section. PAWS loves their volunteers and always finds ways to thank them.

Here I am with one of the stars of the fashion world, Borris Powell, a dear friend who also came to watch the fashion.
